5.1

External capacitors

The C1 and C2 external capacitors should be low SR value ceramic type construction (typ.

recommended value 200 m

). Reservoir capacitor C1 is nominally 4.7 μF in capacitance,

with the set/reset capacitor C2 nominally 0.22 μF in capacitance.

The device core is supplied through the Vdd line. Power supply decoupling capacitors

(C4 = 100 nF ceramic, C3 = 10 μF Al) should be placed as near as possible to the supply pin

of the device (common design practice). All the voltage and ground supplies must be

present at the same time to have proper behavior of the IC (refer to Figure 5).

The functionality of the device and the measured acceleration/magnetic field data is

selectable and accessible through the I2C/SPI interfaces.

The functions, the threshold and the timing of the two interrupt pins (INT 1 and INT 2) can be

completely programmed by the user through the I2C/SPI interfaces.

5.2

Pull-up resistors

If an I2C interface is used, pull-up resistors (recommended value 10 k

) must be placed on

the two I2C bus lines.
